Breast lump, core needle biopsy, i am 17 female, please help?

Overwhelming: Odds are that your breast lump is not cancerous, at your age if you are 17. Wait for results of biopsy to make sure.

The probability: is, at your age, it will be benign. You may have to wait several days for the results, but keep in mind that the odds are in your favor by a wide margin.
